註釋

This book represents the largest and most comprehensive collection of works from the 1980s and '90s by the iconoclastic and visionary Norwegian painter Odd Nerdrum -- an artist as odd by name as he is by nature, whose painterly "Old-Master-Style" represents both a reaction against contemporary aesthetics, and a radical updating of traditional narrative and religious art. Featuring 125 paintings, as well as an additional 50 detailed reproductions showing Nerdrum's exquisite techniques and brush work, the book also contains extensive critical and art-historical text on Nerdrum's evolution from the anti-modernism of the 1900s to the strange figures and desolate landscapes that characterize his work of the last fifteen years. Norwegian art historian J. A. Pettersson's intimate biographical portrait of Nerdrum reveals the levels of intention behind the timeless, mythic realm of the artist's carefully constructed work.
